200 block of Centre Street N?

Someone got this wrong because the 200 block would be just north of the Centre Street bridge.

I see there was a shooting in the inner city neighborhood of Sunalta last night.

Meanwhile in another inner city neighborhood residents are dealing with a park that's been taking over by druggies and riddled with needles.

Where's your comments about the triple murder in the suburbs? hypocrite.

This year seems to have turned a bit violent, lots going on lately it seems. Still, if you aren't involved in crime, your chances of being involved are quite small. Just spent a few weeks in Europe, and it was a nice change to come back here and not have police armed to the teeth in major public places. We may have crime, but this is still one of the safest places anywhere.

Horrendous - and I hear there was another body recovered from the SE commuter communities. Gang wars and drug rings.

I want to know more about the red dot at 36th NE and Airport trail. Was this an #avgeek spotter fight about Airbus vs Boeing that went a little to far?

Those A vs B fights get ugly.

Until Jason Kenney comes in and tries to unite the core of the inner city between the top half of one and the bottom half of three, splitting the count allows four to win.

As an aside, if the rate creeps up even a pinch, we could for the first time hit 100 shootings in the city this year.
